This part of Black Bond is too much for me to get past...i have to rewind this shyt every time he finishes this scheme.

I pull a string on the lamp, that shyt darkens
I'm livin' in an elegant Moroccan apartment
Proletarian chick sparkin'
Convo weak, and I don't really care for her jargon
Balcony is windy, lookin' at the stars and
Alchy on the Henny, woozy in the head, wobblin'
Gucci pillow on the bed, while she givin' noggin
Listenin' and trippin' off the Maxwell album
Thinkin' I should leave to a European island
Bristol or Spain, bring a book about Stalin
Dinner serenaded with a violin
But shorty not qualified to be took to that kind of outing
Gotta be a fly bytch to hang around that fly shyt
Fine dining Olive Garden, naw bytch, Nas is
In the real deal, food spots on the constant
Pick the right wine, a Chianti to wash it
Lifestyle encompasses top-notch watches
Rolexes synonymous shyt I'm coppin'

I finally gave the album a proper listen and off first listen, I'll give it 4.5 outta 5. To say Nas went in on this album is an understatement....he bodied this joint! I noticed that his 2nd/3rd verses stood out the most, like Ima show you how to finish a song.

Production was top notch (hats off to Remi)

Right now I've been playing Where's The Love the most....cant stop rewinding the second verse.....had me like :ohhh::leon::gladbron:

3rd verse on world is an adiction nasir blacks out

Damn sure did. So many dope moments on this album I don't even think I've processed it all. That 3rd verse on Queens story, the second verse on Stay, and third verse on World Is an Addiction stand out so far.

To people who aren't feeling the album, I'm curious as to what you're listening to these days? Just to get an insight into people's taste vs. this. Not bashing anybody though.
